Hi there! Welcome to the KLP Blog, a journal about all the things that I love about life. Stay a while and say hello!

Hi, I'm kayla.

It’s September, folks. These days the nighttime temp is into the 40s, pumpkin spice is available in all varieties (I’m sipping a pumpkin spice caramel cheesecake latte as I type), so it is fair to say that fall is here. If you like me you are here for it. If you are also like me, […]

TIPS FOR FALL WEDDINGS

Like most good things, it all started on Duluth’s Superior Street. It was just a typical night at Dubh Linn’s. By chance, they were both there, with their friends. They met, chatted, and that was that. It was to be nothing more than just come talk about tattoos over beer. But that one meeting was […]

Small towns are comfortable, especially if you are lucky enough to call one home. Like a sweater or an oversized sweatshirt, they are roomy, warm, and welcoming. This is how Ann felt about her little city of Littlefork, Minnesota. As her dad, Darrell, revealed to a packed house at the Board Room in Superior, Ann […]

It was a chilly, chilly morning, a mere 45 degrees as Alisa was corseted up by her would-be mother-in-law in the cottage at Trellis Wedding Events in Stillwater, Minnesota. She rubbed away the already-forming goosebumps from her arm, gesturing lightly to the hooded shawl (the perfect match to her lace mermaid gown) that would protect […]

Fall in northern Minnesota is a finicky thing. Too many variables to list contribute to the autumnal rainbow that we love even more than Pumpkin Spice. Unfortunately, this year fall has been a bit aloof, with partial changes in the north (and very little changes in the metro and south, thanks to a heatwave followed […]

If there is one rule of feminism, it is this: Never underestimate the power of a woman in a red heel.   Be on the double look-out if this red shoed woman is a beautiful bride, surrounded by her sorority friends.   It was last January when I first met Heather and Jesse and their […]

It was one movie, Rayanna thought to herself. Even though she wasn’t super-excited about it or who it was with, she figured it couldn’t hurt. It was just one movie. A couple of hours of her life, and then it would be over, and then her and this guy who asked her, Cody, could go […]

    The best thing about best friends is their ability to see you holistically. They know how to make you laugh; they know how to make you cry. It is almost like they are an emotional mirror that can not only reflect what is being felt, but also bounce back the feelings that are […]

A quote that has always been one of my favorites is from Roy de Cavara. He brilliantly once said that “It doesn’t have to be pretty to be true. But if it’s true it’s beautiful.” He was a fellow photographer, one who is often credited as the creator of fine art black and white photography […]

While there is a spot for all dogs in my heart, black labs will always have a special spot.   Neri, Matt and Beth’s fur baby, is such a black lab that makes that heart happy. Playful yet obedient, posing was not a problem as she partook in the engagement session for her people parents. […]
